Oh, I guess it isn't rocket-science, but capturing reflections in the Lagunitas Creek takes being there at the proper time -- when the creek is still shaded but with surrounding trees and vegetation illuminated.

It also takes a morning that isn't foggy or overcast -- the sun can be elusive -- SO, when these two things are working -- the timing and a sunny day -- colorful water happens.

Another colorful example. Water has many moods.
